Fun Facts!
According to Astronomers Margaret Turnbull and Jill Tarter, there are 17,129 nearby stars that are likely to have planets that could support complex life.
What you will need:
- 3D printer filament. I used a green PLA filament but you are free to choose what you think would look best. I found that post-processing such as sanding was not required with PLA.
2. Assorted Sandpaper (this may not be required with PLA).
3. Night Lights (6 Colors to choose from).
4. The 3D File. Just click on the blue colored “FREE ALIEN .STL FILE” link to download the free file.
Now just print it, sand it, slide it onto the Night Light and enjoy! On my Airwolf 3D printer, I used an extruder temperature of 220 C, and a resolution of .2 mm. On the print bed I used blue painters tape and no bed heat. I printed with the Aline face flat on the build plate and I did not use a raft or support material.
